[D]
Someone's [Bm] messing with the [D] machines
They've been [Bm] left [D] out in the rain
Well it's [Bm] strange to come back [G] free
[E] Of any of us, [Dm] did you do [D] explain?
Could you [E] speak a little [Dm] more, clearly on [D] the line?
Cold wind [Bm]
keeps [D] blowing from the east
[B]
Transatlantic crossings coming [D] to a freeze
I'm [B] in exile with the sign that [G] it reads
No one [E] can tell which side of [D] the street
Would I [E] stand a little closer to [D] the light?
Woah, [G]
[D] woah, woah, [G] woah, [D] woah
No one [Bm] can tell which side [G] to claim
[E] Could you speak a [G] little more clearly, once [D] again?
[E] Speak a [G] little clearly on [D] the line
[A] Indian summer, [G] cold war [D] skies
[A] Nervous drummers [G] on over the [D] flag
Well [Bm] the chaos grows [D] stronger on [G] the superstition [D] flyway
[E] Looks like [C] we're spinning out [D] tonight
Could you [E] step a little [C] closer to [D] the light?
[Bm] Splitting heart [D] and mind
Broken [Bm]
[D] circuit by desire
Well the [A] demand for all [D] is going through
The [E] scientists are for [D] the working mace
While they tap, tap, tap, [D] tap, tapping on the line
Could you [E] speak a little clearly, one more [D] time?
While you tap, tap, tap, tap, tapping on the line
